Should Turbo/DCE Play State of Origin?

I think I'd prefer DCE to play Origin as I'd probably enjoy watching us more in those weeks he isn't there, good for NSW if he plays as well.

I'd say Tom needs to repay the club at this point though. We likely lose this weekend and head into the bye at 3-5. After that it's two more tough games with Sharks at home and Cowboys away, every chance we lose both but let's say we win one and are 4-6 heading into the Origin period. I don't think it will look particularly good if Tom goes off to Origin again when we're outside the 8 and needing wins, when he's only just returned from another injury. There's no way he backs up either so I think at best we'd have him for 2 of the 6 games we play over the period.

Time to repay the club, he was allegedly wanting to pay back some of his salary last year but that was never going to be allowed, this is an actual opportunity to give back.

No chance Jake gets picked and Haumole should but likely won't, which is good for us anyway.
 
I do't think manly will have a single representative in Origin 1. Bold call. But i think Guac will not make the bench, Jake is done, and both DCE and Tom are out of form/injured.

Sad really.... when was the last time we didn't have a single player in either squad?
What are the odds that the unsigned Bullemor makes it, but not any of them lol
 
DCE State of Origin story (yahoo!News)...

The love Manly fans had for their skipper when he first announced he was leaving is evaporating by the day and they won't take too kindly to him taking off for another Origin campaign. Coach Anthony Seibold or club management won’t stand in his way but you don't have to be Einstein to work out what their preference would be.

Maroons coach Billy Slater is of the belief the 36-year-old will go around again. And that probably tells you all you need to know.

Is there any fear that if Turbo is selected for State of Origin the NRL will deem a higher minimum amount for his next contract than might otherwise be the case?
 
Jake has the Big Passion to play Origin
But he does not have the Big Play any more
I do not think he will be selected over the more inform , faster and furious forwards

DCE is the most Eligible Elite QLD no7 and Leader
He should make him self available like all other Elite players do

I’d be happy if this were the case!

If DCE is still manly captain when he puts his hand up for origin, surely even Seibold’s most ardent fan boys on here will have to say enough’s enough.

If DCE plays Origin obviously Manly will need a different captain...
Maybe that would be the ideal time to make the change permanent...
Captaincy stays with the replacement captain as part of natural progression of moving towards life without DCE...
may he RIP
 
I HOPE NONE MAKE IT, maybe DCE to give JArthur a chance. OLA and Bully cause they deserve it and don't want them to miss out on their REP career & cash$$.

I remember the days when Mighty Manly Warringah SeaEagles had half of NSW&QLD team with our players. I'm in the ACT so I couldn't give a **** who wins, I've always gone for the teams with more Eagles players, also QLD is Maroon I love the colour. We've a rich history of QLD players so to me they're all Eagles. I bleed Maroon forever, it was tough who to go for let me tell U, I just hope none of them get injured.

Sad yes but great for the team! Although wouldn’t really care if DCE was picked. At least someone else gets to show their worth & who knows could surprise. The way DCE is playing for us currently it wouldn’t be a great loss!
 
Dce will absolutely play if selected. Selfish is the only thing he does consistently

Tom needs to sting some games together and really should lighten his load and not play to give his body half a chance

Jake would not get selected in a third string origin team

Hudson young will get haumole spot, both in form but young has been incredible.

Origin period is our last chance to make up the ground we have lost, if the team even wants to do that
Of course DCE will play…..he’s not gonna forgo the big dollars.
 
DCE will play $30k a game, he wont want to miss out on that. Tom should retire from any rep footy and pay Manly back, by "maybe" staying uninjured for longer. The more he plays the closer he gets to yet another injury lay off. Surly they wont pick Jake on form alone.
I honestly will be pi$$ed off big time if Trbo is selected for Origin & gets injured. The club should the medically retire him or release him because that would show his commitment is not to Manly!
 
They should both not be playing origin but I'm afraid for all the bullsht that comes from their mouths first priority is themselves and their brand and that means representing over club.
